The department includes a popular undergraduate major, an APA-accredited Ph.D. program in Clinical Psychology, and a Masters of Mental Health Counseling program. The successful candidate will teach at the undergraduate and doctoral level; previous teaching experience is preferred. In addition to demonstrating excellence in teaching and research, the successful candidate is expected to advise and mentor undergraduate and clinical doctoral students, serve on dissertation committees, and engage in service within the Department, College, and University. We are committed to promoting equity in the field and inclusive teaching practices.

Candidates who are licensed in or willing to become licensed in Massachusetts are preferred.

Faculty in the Psychology Department have a wide range of expertise and perspectives in psychology. Our department does not focus on a single approach, though we have a shared commitment to advancing social justice. Our faculty are engaged in the community as clinicians, researchers, advocates, and consultants. Department faculty take advantage of our location in the heart of Boston to participate in broad research, clinical, and other professional opportunities.

Founded in 1906 by Gleason Archer, who provided legal education in the evening to individuals who might not otherwise have been afforded that opportunity, Suffolk University consistently seeks to advance its history as a school of access and opportunity. Over 1/3 of our undergraduates identify as first-generation and 35% of our undergraduate and graduate students are from racially minoritized groups. Our access and opportunity mission is lived through our decisions at every level. U.S. News ranked Suffolk University among the top 100 universities in the country for social mobility. Through student, faculty and staff recruitment and support, community engagement, curriculum development, and research, the University community works to advance equity for every student, every day.

The successful candidate will contribute to Suffolk's rich tradition of community-engaged teaching and experiential education that prepares our diverse, substantially first-generation college students for careers and civic engagement. We seek candidates with a commitment to inclusive pedagogy and curricular diversity, mentoring and advising students-especially first-generation college students-as well as conducting impactful research with students.
